  - VTK API Available in vovtasker
    The binary vovtasker has access to only a limited VTK API. This is because the protocol between vovtasker and vovserver has special requirements. This limited API is used, for example, in the taskerLSF.tcl file, in taskerRes.tcl, and in general in all Tcl scripts read by vovtasker.

A

File: vovfdl.tcl
Usage: A note check (default=1)

AD

File: vovfdl.tcl
Usage: AD job1 jobOrSet2 barrier (default=0)

Create an artificial dependency between job1 and job2 using a phantom place (see docs about phantoms) In large flows, it is possible that this AD is called on job ids that are already executed and forgotten. Gently handle those errors but continue.
